Patty commented:

oh, no she didn’t? YOU HAVE GOT TO LOVE IT WHEN: Krugman or the likes of him, is called out for lying, but when a WOMAN has to do it, proves to me what a wuss Krugman truly is.

Same old talking points, it is like these liberals have read their script and memorized it in hopes others believe them. UH, look at ABC audience. No convincing there.

Paul Krugman Gets Busted Lying to His Readers About Obamacare

Krugman’s failure stems from the fact that he attempts to call the writer of the Newsweek piece “unethical” while Krugman himself misrepresents the CBO report he links to, deliberately misleading his own readers about the costs and increased deficit projections of Obamacare.

Niall Ferguson quickly responds showing Krugman for the liar he is:

In my piece I say: “The president pledged that health-care reform would not add a cent to the deficit. But the CBO and the Joint Committee on Taxation now estimate that the insurance-coverage provisions of the ACA will have a net cost of close to $1.2 trillion over the 2012–22 period.”

Krugman counters in his Conscience of a Liberal blog by saying: “The ACA would reduce, not increase, the deficit—because the insurance subsidies were fully paid for.” But I very deliberately said “the insurance coverage provisions of the ACA,” not “the ACA.” There is a big difference.

[ BRUSSELS — The Iranian education system is preparing its students
for a global war against the West in the name of Islam, according to
an independent study of 115 textbooks and teachers guides released
today.

With Tehran accused of seeking to develop a nuclear weapons arsenal
and the United States dispatching a second aircraft carrier to the Gulf,
the report by the Center for Monitoring the Impact of Peace highlights
the uphill task Washington faces trying to persuade Iranian youth to
distance themselves from the hard-line Islamist regime.

The study, which claims to be the first of its kind, catalogs how pupils
as young as 9 are conditioned to take part in a global jihad against
such “infidel oppressors” as Israel and the United States.

“Hate indoctrination is a professed goal of Iranian textbooks,” said
the report’s author, Arnon Groiss, a Princeton- and Harvard-educated
journalist who also has written critical studies of the Israeli, Palestinian,
Syrian, Saudi and Egyptian education systems.

According to Mr. Groiss, Iranian pupils learn from an early age that
the Islamic republic is in mortal combat with Western powers bent
on its destruction.

One 11th-grade textbook, quoting former spiritual leader Ayatollah
Ruhollah Khomeini, refers to the United States and its allies as “the
World Devourers” and says that if they “wish to stand against our
religion, we will stand against their whole world and will not cease
until the annihilation of all of them.”]

Krugman smacked down by two intelligent ladies. He called for a break climbed down from his chair, went to change his depends and book himself on Letterman to boost his self esteem. Dave the dolt will nod his wobbly head at anything he says.

#15 thinks the Nobel Prize is still the rubric of accomplishment. The fact that Obama received one should be an indication to everyone that the Oslo Committees have an agenda that is less than academic. Prize winners are now seen as having met ideological criteria of a decaying Western Europe.

However, it’s still fun to pretend. That’s part of the reason we still enjoy opening a Cracker Jacks box.
